Raw Crypto Replication Deferred Update

Raw crypto replication improves the security and efficiency of replicating encrypted data by avoiding both decrypting the data on the source appliance and reencrypting it on the target appliance. Security is enhanced by sending the data encrypted instead of unencrypted.

The raw crypto option is enabled by default for new replication actions if the raw crypto deferred update has been applied on the source appliance. Similarly, the deferred update must be applied on target appliances to receive a replication with raw crypto enabled.
